Grown since the 15th century, this tea's unique terroir in the crevices of Wuyi mountain cliffs has made it a favorite among tea connoisseurs. This black oolong is hand-roasted three times to bring out complex notes of plum and wild mountain flowers, with base notes of smoky mountain woods and minerality. Aged for one year after roasting, this opulent tea evolves with each brew and leaves a lasting impression. Like a fine port with its long length and robust finish, this is a perfect after-meal tea.
